Wash all limes thoroughly by scrubbing the peel with dish soap to remove any wax or pesticides.

Step 2

Remove the peel of two of them and slice off the ends of each lime with a peel.Now, cut them, lengthwise, into 1/8ths, and remove the pith to avoid making it more bitter.

In a blender, combine all lime wedges with half the water and blend for 10 seconds. No more!

Step 4

Pour through a fine-mesh strainer into a large bowl, pressing on the pulp to remove all the lime juice. Discard the remaining peels and pulp.

Return the liquid to the blender, add the condensed milk and blend it with the remaining water until creamy and frothy.

Pour into a pitcher filled with ice and serve immediately.
